This week we are talking about being good friends, sharing, taking turnings, asking for toys and manners.Our book of the week is, "How do dinosaurs play with their friends?"
We also started our shape and color of the week. Yesterday we used red paint and marbles to decorate our squares.
Today we made friendship bracelets. We passed the bowls of fruit loops around, taking turns, and saying thank you after the bowl was passed. Our manners are looking good!
Fine motor skills and working together...
We also worked with a buddy at art time. Each pair had two pieces of paper on the easel and they had to decorate both pieces of art. They had lots of practice asking for the color marker they wanted, sharing the papers, their space ect. They did an awesome job on their buddy artwork.
Lil M and A as a pair
L and A discussing what to draw
K and E, "you take the high road, I'll take the low road".
And C and A working hard!
We finished up our morning by flickin' a fly (our movement game) and learning about boundaries for our PE games. Lots more in store for friendship and manners week!

I love your blog! I noticed it because I too value nice manners. In fact, I created a game on manners called "Blunders" that is available throughout the country and at most Toys-R-Us stores this fall. Here is my website if you're interested www.blundersmania.com. Thank you for your efforts to teach kids manners. :-)
